PANTY GIRDLE Filed July 25, 1947 Patented Nov. 28, 1950 UNIT ED STATES PATENT O F FI CE.
APerrin! GIRDLE Olga Erteszek, Los Angeles,` Calif. Application `fuly 23, 1947-, Serial No'. 762,909-` 1 Claim. l;
invention relates to panty girdles ofV the type having a crotch opening, and the principal object of my invention isto provide a separately formed closure of soft, flexible material for said crotch opening, and to equip said girdle and closure, with readily releasable means whereby the closure maybe readily secured to or removed from the girdle, thus facilitating interchange of closures and` theY convenient laundering thereof.
A further object of my invention is, to provide a girdle crotch closure which, when in use, is dis posed wholly within the girdle so as to combine therewith' in covering and protecting all those portions ofl the wearers body and legsl which would otherwise be exposed through the crotch opening and the releasable connections between the girdle and closure being located so that they cannot in any way produce discomfort to the wearer.
A further olbject of my invention is to locate the releasable connections between the medial front and rear edges of the closure and the girdle so to resist to a maximum degree, those service strains developed in that portion or zone of the closure which overlies and closes the crotch opening.
With the foregoing and other objects in View, my invention consists in certain novel features of construction and arrangement of parts which will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational view of the panty girdle with the crotch opening closure in position thereupon.
Fig. 2 is a Vertical section taken on the line 2--2 of Fig. l.
Fig. 3 is a plan view looking against the cuter face of the closure.
Fig. 4 is a horizontal section taken on the line 4-4- of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail section showing the detachable connection used between the intermediate portio-ns of the front and rear edges of the closure and the panty girdle.
Fig. 6 is an enlarged detail showing the detachable connection used between the corners ofthe closure and girdle.
Referring by numerals to the accompanying drawing, which illustrates a preferred embodiment of my invention, II! designates the body of the garment which is preferably woven from more or less elastic material, of such size as to snugly fit the lower portion of the torso, the hips and buttocks and depending from the lower end of said body, are shor depending leg encircling members II. i
Formed in thecrotch of the garmentbetween the upper inner portions of the leg encircling members II and extending fromfront to rear is an opening I2, which :is-shown, may be slightly W-idened at :both ends.
The closure I3 contemplated by my invention is formedY from one or more layers of soft', flexible, readily laundered fabric such as silk, glove sillc rayon, cotton or the like and said closure is gen` erally rectangular in shape assee'nin Fig. 3l
The closure is formed from two practically identical members, united by a medial seam- Ill'A extending from front terrear and the two mem' bers are shapedsothattlie central portion ofthe rear edge of the finished closure curves outwardly to a lesser degree, as designated by I6. This particular structure. and shape of the closure enables it to assume a substantially saddle shape When applied to the crotch portion of the girdle over the opening I2.
`Secured by stitching to the corners of the closure o-n the underface thereof, are small reinforcing members I'I of fabric, which overlile the stud members I8 of conventional snap fasteners with said studs projecting above the faces of members I'I.
Secured on the underface of closure I3, along the outwardly curved edges I5 and I6 and overlying the ends of seam I4, are short strips of fabric I9 and positioned between and secured to the closure and said strips, are the base portions of hooks 2U, which latter pass through the strips I9 and lie immediately above same.
Secured to the inner face of girdle I0 to the sides of the ends of crotch opening I2 and the socket members 2| are conventional snap fasteners, which are adapted to receive the studs I8 of the closure when same is applied for use.
Secured to the inner face of the girdle just above the ends of crotch opening I2 are conventional eyes 22, which receive the hooks 2|] when the closure is applied for use.
The construction just described provides simple and effective means for detachably securing the closure I3 on the inner face of the crotch portion of the girdle over the opening I2, with the fastening means overlaid by said closure so :as to entirely eliminate direct contact between the wearers skin and said fastening means and at the same time, maintaining the closure in a smooth, comfortable position over the crotch opening and the edges thereof.
Thus the closure when applied for use, affords complete coverage for the crotch portion of the Wearers body and whenever necessary, the readily separable hooks and eyes and snap fasteners, enables the closure to be bodily removed from the garment or partially disconnected, thus permit- 'ting the closure to be conveniently manipulated 'so as to uncoverthe crotch opening and permit natural body functions.
While in use, the greatest tensile strains are impressed on the closure in the zone between members I9, along seam I4 and to resist such strains, I prefer to use the hook and eye connections 20 and Z2 between the front and rear edges of the closure and the Wall of the girdle above the ends of opening I2.
My improved construction minimizes the possibility of chang of the wearers skin in the crotch portion of the body and the ready detachability of the closure provides for a convenient interchange of clean and soiled closures and the laundering of the latter.
It is to be understood that the crotch opening. closure contemplated by my invention, should be formed of soft exible, readily launderable material, of uniform thickness throughout its area and Without bulkiness, so as to contact the body with maximum protection and very little, if any, discomfort.
Thus it will be seen that I have provided a panty girdle which is simple in structure, inexpensive of manufacture and very effective in performing the functions for which it is intended.
Minor changes in the size, form and construction of the various parts of my improved panty girdle may be made and substituted for those herein shown and described without departing from the spirit of the invention, the scrvp of which is set forth in the appended claim.
I claim as my invention:
The combination with a panty girdle having short leg encircling portions and there being a. substantially rectangular, front to rear narrow crotch opening formed between the upper inner portions of said leg encircling members, of a substantially rectangular closure'of flexible material within the crotch portion of the girdle, the length and width of which closure are substantially greater than the length and Width of said crotch opening, so as to completely cover and close said crotch opening and extend substantial distances beyond the edges thereof, complementary fastening members on said panty girdle and closure for detachably securing the central portions of the ends of said closure to the inner face of the panty girdle, beyond and in alignment with the ends of said crotch opening and other means for detachably securing theV corners of the closure to said garment at points beyond and laterally fro the ends of said opening.
